“Since the election, Aspen area sales have picked up and prices are climbing, said Aspen broker Tim Estin. The median sales price for an Aspen home was $4.8 million in 2016, down from $5.8 million in 2015. In January, the Aspen market saw 29 deals, compared to 12 in January 2016, Estin said. Whatever the reason — a feeling of economic optimism, an improved stock market, renewed oil and gas drilling — the market in Aspen is “bullish” right now, he said.”
